Giving up 1st rounders in the range between 15 and 32, I would have little issue with if we were getting back a young elite player in his prime and with term.

But I can't help but feel our 1sts are going to be more valuable than that. Just too many holes to fill and one RFA offersheet, or one player acquisition at the expense of other decent roster players, isn't going to fix that enough to matter.

If we are not going to rebuild, which looks like we aren't, then go for it I guess.
